I used to be a games tester for Ocean Software for a few years in the early 1990s, so maybe I shouldn't play this game, but I'm fairly sure this was called World of Empire...and I think it was a bit later than 1990 too.
But if I'm right, someone else have a go because I'm at work and don't really have time to play forum games, worse luck. smilie.

Ok, the answer was Legend, maybe it was a bit of a hard one, I dont want to ruin the game so heres something a bit easier.

I know someone will get this.

Personaly I don't mind the harder questions and you can always offer more clues if it drags out. Shame I never played Legend at the time, looks like a good game and Polymath was close Worlds of Legend: Son of the Empire was the sequel.

Planescape: Torment and a quick confession I skipped this one but did play BG, BG2 and NWN2.... and never finished one of them, compulsive restarter for a better party

Hope no one minds that I post another one straight away, I'm running out the door.

Sorry if I gave the game answer to quickly. You really should give Planescape Torment a go if you can get hold of it. Much better than BG and NWN in my opinion, great story and characters.
Oh and is the new one Black Tiger?

Quokka · 16th March 2006, 10:31 AM

Your right I should give Torment a go, it was not being able to create your own character that put me off origianly, it was Ice Wind Dale 2 not NWN that I had placeyed before as well.

It is Black Tiger, a great action platfrom and a game personal favourite from the arcade days

Bonus point if you can name the RPG elements that made it that bit more interesting than most platformers?

Stenevor · 16th March 2006, 08:49 PM

I cant remember a great deal about Black Tiger, I only played it once or twice at the most. Seem to recall collecting coins to buy stuff though.

Heres a new one, shouldnt be too hard.

I have no idea...

...Lawnmower Man?

Winters_Sorrow · 20th March 2006, 11:40 AM

Is it one of the .Hack games for the PS2?

No. A couple of clues - It first came out on the Dreamcast, you could buy a Trancevibrator for it that vibrated along to the music.

I must say, I have never played it, but am I crazy? Doesn't it remind you a bit of Lawnmowerman, though?

Anyway, guess the game the below screenshot was taken from:

Erik the Lost Viking?

Close enough. The title of this Super Nintendo classic is "Lost Vikings." It is a bit like Lemmings...but Norse.

Your turn.

Winters_Sorrow · 23rd March 2006, 11:16 AM

Ok

How's about this one?
